Equipment buyer’s guide
The right equipment for each working day.
Start with the job, not the longest feature list. A reception desk, a warehouse and a person on a laptop have different priorities.
Get the important details right
What this means for your business.
For the desk
Consider screen size, line keys, headset support and the amount of time spent answering.
For movement
Check coverage, charging and the intended cordless or mobile setup.
For compatibility
Confirm the actual model, firmware, connectors and supported phone platform.
A practical way forward
Compare equipment for each role.
Keep the choices, responsibilities and outstanding questions together. That makes the next conversation more useful.

Before you take the next step
Your questions, answered.
Need to check a specific requirement? Call 0330 0883 750.
Should every user have the same device?
Consistency can make support easier, but a receptionist and an occasional caller may need different controls. Standardise where it helps without ignoring the role.
Are shop specifications verified manufacturer specifications?
No. This is a simulated catalogue with original illustrative products and example specifications. A real quotation must name the actual manufacturer and model.
Can I buy an adapter for a safety system?
Alarm, lift, medical and other safety-related systems require specialist compatibility and continuity assessment. Do not assume an analogue adapter makes them suitable for an internet phone service.
